Now, it's very possible they do and I'm just not home to see it, but your post has made me more aware of their absence. Has anyone else had the same observation?
We have seen quite a few unmarked cars patrolling our area which includes Hillsborough, Pinellas, and the surrounding streets. Also several sheriff deputy marked patrol cars have been very visible. We just came by the Sanibel pool about and hour ago and there were two Sumtner County Sheriff cars who appeared to be arresting a woman. They appeared to be frisking her and slapping the cuffs on her. This also happened in the Pinellas Plaza a few weeks ago when I was there. They were searching a woman and cuffing her outside the nail place. They are definitely on patrol and looking out for suspects committing crimes in our area. I think they are really doing a great job with making their presence known.
